EVALUATION OF STRUCTURAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND PHASE TRANSITIONS OF GAS CONDENSATE

The physical and chemical properties of a multicomponent disperse system, viz. gas condensate, are presented. The structural and mechanical properties of the sample and the phase transitions that occur when the pumping temperature decreases at startup and steady fl ow regimes have been determined. The values of the activation energy corresponding to the liquid and quasi-liquid types have been estimated. Optimum temperature values have been obtained for transportation of gas condensate on the Urengoy–Purpe condensate pipeline section with account for the fl ow regime
